Not a lot of action on this group lately...
It's time for the post season wrap up, from a team perspective and
from a GSBB perspective:
The Team - much improved despite another losing no-playoff season.
Next season there is no reason why we should not have 10+ wins. To
get there: get a run stuffer on the D line, replace the likely
departing Nate Clements, improve the O line.
The group - I know there was some discussion about the pros and cons
of making our home at Billy's but IMO there is no better place to
catch the Bills. We share the back room with any number of groups of
loyal fans. It's not just the Steelers contingent anymore. And,
please note that we outnumbered the Steeler faithful on multiple
occasions. If you add in the fans of the teams that the Bills were
playing each week, we had the most patrons in the room looking at the
Bills more than half the time. It would only take a few more of you
members to join us each week to have a consistent majority and
therefore control over the sound system in the room. We always get to
see our game but often have to listen to another. However, as I was
told last season, majority rules at Billy's. The Steeler fans don't
like it but we are fast becoming the dominant group on gamedays. We
have our "core"
group of fans that are there almost every week and it would be great
to add to it and get a few more tables.
The biggest bone of contention this year seemed to be how the checks
were handled. Some of us got used to separate checks for everyone at
a table and while there is one waitress who has no problem with this,
the rest can't handle it. And I will say, on a busy gameday Sunday,
it may be too much to ask. This may be something we have to adjust to
in the coming season. Other than that its a great place to see a game
and Billy clearly wants to make sure everyone is taken care of and
gets to see their game. Of course, prior to each season it's open to
debate whether we continue to make that our home so post your
comments.
As we look towards the draft, please post your suggestions on who we
should select at #12.
GO BILLS!!!
